Amazon DocumentDB (with MongoDB compatibility) now supports R8g.24xlarge and R8g.48xlarge instances
Amazon DocumentDB (with MongoDB compatibility) now supports R8g.24xlarge and R8g.48xlarge database instances. R8g instances are powered by AWS Graviton4 processors and feature DDR5 memory, enabling customers to achieve higher throughput and support larger working sets in memory. With R8g.24xlarge (96 vCPUs, 768 GiB memory) and R8g.48xlarge (192 vCPUs, 1,536 GiB memory), customers can run more demanding workloads such as high-concurrency transactional applications, large-scale document processing, and memory-intensive operational workloads. Customers can get started with R8g.24xlarge and R8g.48
AWS continues to roll out Graviton-powered instances across its services, following the established pattern of offering newer, more performant, and often more cost-effective hardware options to its customers.
This update allows Amazon DocumentDB users to run more demanding, memory-intensive workloads with improved performance and potentially better cost efficiency due to the Graviton4 processors.
Customers can now utilize significantly larger and more powerful instances for DocumentDB, enabling them to tackle more complex document processing, high-concurrency transactional applications, and larger in-memory datasets.
- · AWS customers with large DocumentDB deployments
- · AWS (due to continued Graviton adoption)
- · Companies relying on memory-intensive database operations
Amazon DocumentDB gains enhanced capacity and performance for its users.
Enterprises can consolidate more workloads onto DocumentDB, potentially reducing operational complexity and cost.
Increased performance and efficiency reinforce AWS's position as a leading cloud provider for specialized database workloads.
